but why cut taxes now? well first, at a time when federal taxes have just go on all working hoosiers, most small businesses and family farms and each our medical device industry, now more than ever, hoosiers can use some tax relaugh. second this reduction in taxes will unleash a half a bill dollars into the private voluntary economic every year. letting hoosiers keep more dollars to spend, invest or save will be good for indiana families and businesses. third reducing the perm income tax is the best way to lower taxes on small businesses and family farms. 92 percent of hoosier small businesses pay their tafps under the indiana income tax rate. by lowering taxes, small businesses will have more money to hire new employees, purchase new equipment and grow. and fourth, by lowering the perpblg income tax rate by ten percent will be official. indiana will be the lowest taxed state in the midwest.

as well on the tax cuts. the president agreed to extend the tax cuts, and even republicans privately said they were surprised they got a clean extension from him. there certainly is the impression the president compromise too much in his first term. that is why you see this different approach that we've been talking about since the beginning of a more aggressive, combat of obama, but also on obama that reaches out to the public to try to bring public pressure to bear on republicans, and who did that. president reagan did that. it is more of a model that reagan used. you will see him apply that to all of the issues in the pipeline. host: let me go back to something the president said in his address today. he talked about life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. in terms of the tactics of moving ahead on the guns agenda, we also heard the president last week talking about the inalienable rights of the average american, and that includes protecting our children. you can see a different twist on the constitut
